These patches are a resubmit of patch 5/5 of the first series
submitted 2005-03-17. Jeff requested that the single patch be split
into a suggested 3 smaller patches; the results are below. I also
took this opportunity to further clean up the changes.
[ Start of patch descriptions ]
01_libata_libata-whitespace.patch
: whitespace updates
This patch adjusts some whitespace to bring the format of
libata-scsi.c to a consistent state.
02_libata_ata_dump_status.patch
: create/use ata_dump_status()
This patch introduces the ata_dump_status() function, which
for now is called from ata_to_sense_error() only.
03_libata_rework-cc-generation.patch
: rework check condition handling
This patch refactors the check condition creation within
libata. Changes include:
- ata_to_sense_error() now *only* performs the translation
from an ATA status/error register combination to a SCSI
SK/ASC/ASCQ combination. Additionally, the translation is
logged at level KERNEL_ERR and any untranslatable combos are
logged at level KERNEL_WARNING.
- ata_dump_status() is modified to take a taskfile struct as
argument in preparation for a future patch which will add
proper display of the failing location (LBA or CHS)
- created ata_gen_fixed_sense() to generate a fixed length CC
sense block.
- ata_pass_thru_cc() has been renamed to
ata_gen_ata_desc_sense() to fit the naming convention
mentioned above. Its guts were changed a bit as well.
- ata_scsi_qc_complete() has been modified to fix a bug where
ATA_12/16 commands would not generate a sense block on
error. Other changes made here as well, including the call
to ata_dump_status().
